Is there a VM freeview box available?
HI folks, can someone please advise if there is a freeview box available to purchase (I.E. own outright - not rented) that will work with VM cable?
I heard about a vbox but cannot find out much about it.
I cam mainly concerned with the possibility of a TV box that works on cable without any subscriptions.
(I don't want one - its just a matter for nationwide Freecycle/Freegle policies).
Cheers,
Zoombini.

Simple answer: nope.
All boxes that can (legally) connect to VM's network remain the property of VM.

OK, so there are no cable boxes., thank you for that clarification Paul.
Do VM do a freeview box that uses the aerial at all?

Not any more, but they used to do one for use in non-cabled areas only.
Out of date unofficial link!
